Well, as I'm sure you know, this particular car wasn't that good, with the team overreaching with an over ambitious, peaky design, in an all out attempt to try and stay up front. In actual fact, it marked the start of McLaren's slump that lasted until the new decade.
Awful lack of energy at the front of the car. It just looked so laboured on change of direction and resulted in understeer. Mclaren should never have let Perez go, the car was fully to blame in 2013
lukaku20wba on the plus side, he probably had the last laugh, McLaren's downfall only got worse after 2013 whereas Perez in the Force India has been going from strength to strength.
Came from the future, McLaren is back up with Sainz and Lando, they finally got a good engine from Renault this time round in testing, they've racked up laps much better and smoother than in previous year, and Perez is at home with Racing Point and impressing everyone with the pink Mercedes, even though he did say unless he gets a win, he will leave in 2022.
I don’t remember who it was but someone in the McLaren organization suggested that they should have run with a D spec of the previous year’s car, the MP4-27. That probably would have been the best choice. Because last time they did that was 2003 when Kimi nearly won the title in the MP4-17D. If they had a used the previous years car, they probably could have fought for championship. The MP4-27 was arguably the best car in 2012. It did struggle with reliability though. So if they had a year to upgrade the reliability and keep the peace of the previous car, they could have won some races.
@@tempest20000 why every year the teams change their cars for a new one? why they cannot keep and working on just one car and make it perfect? if there are teams that their cars of year ago are faster than the new car, that makes no sense. Why they don't keep with the last year car, if it is faster?

I remember few saying that in 2006, when the 2.4 litre V8 engines were introduced, replacing the iconic 3.0 litre V10 engines from 1995 to 2005
@@SiVlog1989 people have short memories. People said that about the senna/prost turbo era when the screaming v10s became standard in the 90s

lukaku20wba they needed to protect their reputation and blame it at someone

Eric Boullier: "McLaren would win with a Mercedes engine"
Andy14104 yawn
We will see if Eric is right this year.
@@alexalbono9530 Eric is long gone now though
Well this has finally aged well now, although 8 years late?
Yes, McLaren did win (and has been winning a lot this year) with Mercedes engines.
1994
awful car, Checo deserves a winner team.
Totally agree, he came into mclaren in the worst moment, bad Lucky for him
Oh well how the tables turn.
@@americantrucking6843 I also agree I am a Checo fan I hope Perez does good this year.
Aged well
